  1. Since a former link expired, just thought I'd refresh it... needed something to get the toes tappin'
  2. Somewhere, a squirrel fell off someone's roof...
  3. Played a great horse the other day; took seven horses to beat him.
  4. But would you have kept it long enough to see six figures for it?
  5. Our school called it foods & nutrition. To a teenage guy, it was perfect... a roomful of girls and Food ! ... and then you still had mechanics and drafting classes to look forward to
  6. For those interested in doing so, Mr Geary had a solution for those rear quarters...
  7. Beauty is in the eye of the be(er)holder
  8. For want of a nail, a shoe was lost; for want of the horse, the rider was lost; for want of the rider, the battle was lost; for want of the battle, the kingdom was lost... and all from the want of a horseshoe nail.
  9. Batten down the hatches... here it comes again
  10. From a collection of timeless ancient wisdom writings... 'Beauty held by a woman without discretion is comparable to a gold ring in the snout of a pig'
  11. A fascinating look into the '61 Bel Air conflagration. Lots of beautiful old fire apparatus in the film too.
  12. Received my '68 Beaumont conversion set today from Canuck3D Looking forward to getting back on this project!
  13. He hasn't figured out if he wants to ship north of the line yet. If Fireball and Modelhaus can do it, I'm sure he can... sometime...
  14. We're catching a temporary break here: kinda like spring the last few days... unfortunately, some freezing rain creating business for the bodyshops Beats the heck out of last year at this time Seems as good a place as any for this old midas commercial
  15. Never met him, unfortunately.
  16. Looks cool! Possible the pic and/or contents may need to be updated for accurate front wheels
  17. Here's an F250 4x4 that had a dually axle swapped in (and '87-'96 dually outer fenders adapted). Because true F350 duallys use the same wheel front and back, it has special heavy duty hubs in front for the offset on the wheels. In scale, I guess you can just build whatever looks good to you
  18. GM Canada's Maple Leaf truck. Made from the 30's to the early 50's. Interesting thing about the Beaumonts and Acadians was that the trim pieces were usually chrome castings vs the chevy's stamped aluminum pieces. I've been picking away at a '68 conversion and now that Canuck3d is making conversion sets for these Beaumonts maybe I'll finally get one done
  19. Hilarious. About the same level of intelligence as exists in the world of new auto journalism must have created that. Lots of know-nothings out there in influential positions. I guess it could also be what seems to be a trend we've been seeing where once the license fees have been paid, there's no further oversite looking after representation of intellectual properties. We've seen the concept happen with a well known model kit release about ten years ago and even this... a sign dad was given years ago by a buddy. Legit with bar code and Ford license sticker. Horace and John were surely turning in their graves
  20. Inspiration for a build... with a great backstory too... https://canadianrodder.com/forum/index.php?threads/62-ford-unibody-roof-swap-to-big-back-window.23652/
